UTI or spotting?

Hi, sorry if this is TMI! I'm 24 weeks pregnant - FTM and a bit of a worrier!

I went to the loo and when wiping, it was light pink. I immediately panicked, checked and there was a tiny little clot of fresh blood.
I rang maternity triage who said it seemed like my uterus has been aggravated and to keep an eye for blood if it gets worse.
I have been for a wee again and the water is pink, but my discharge is clear.. is this a sign of a UTI rather than spotting? I don't have any signs like burning sensation.
Any advice or help is appreciated

Sorry to hear you’re so worried I would be exactly the same, I think that in either case they should call you in for a urine test. Sometimes if you have intercourse that can also cause light bleeding. For peace of mind I would call the maternity triage again . Good luck

Have you eaten any beetroot? That can turn wee pink. Otherwise test for a UTI as soon as possible
